A of comparable size , as well as emitting far less carbon dioxide gas and far fewer of the other gasses that have
B of comparable size, as well as emit far less carbon dioxide gas and far fewer of the other gasses having
Altered Intent: having been implicated incorrectly points to engines. But the gases have been implicated NOT engines.
C of comparable size, and also they emit far fewer carbon dioxide and other gasses that have
Don't need both 'and' + 'also'. Either and they emit or also they emit should do.
Moreover, 'they' refers to what? (diesel engines / gasoline engines?)
Also, fewer carbon dioxide is wrong. 'Less' should be used.
D that have a comparable size, and also they emit far fewer of the other gasses having
same as above.
E that have a comparable size, as well as emitting far fewer of the other gasses having
Though I eliminated A as soon as I saw the 'emitting', which is not parallel with 'burn' , A is a little better than other options.
A is my choice.

Same problem as in B. Having links to diesel engine. Besides the reference of THEY is ambigous

also I would think it is incorrect to say fewer carbondioxide, it should be less carbondioxide(non-countable)
saravalli, rw6183, dwivedys, ventivish, all of you are a monster of SC, I think so!

emitting modifies diesel engines..its progressive noun
Btw, fresinha12, can you tell me how this "progressive noun" relating to "diesel engines"? If correct, I think it modifies "gasoline engines"
